Nursing Home Resident Wandering Accidents

Milwaukee Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers

Nursing homes bear responsibility for the safety of the vulnerable people under their care. Elderly residents with dementia, Alzheimer’s patients and people with related conditions are supposed to be monitored so they do not wander off. Tragic accidents can result when a nursing home fails to provide proper supervision of a resident.

If your parent, grandparent or another relative was injured or killed after wandering from a nursing home or assisted living facility, we understand that this may be a painful time. You may be rightfully frustrated at the people who were negligent in their duties.
